1. FIND THE HOLE — Inﬂate the tube until ﬁrm and clean with damp towel. While the

tube is DRY, go over it with your hands and feel for the puncture. Often the small holes

look like a scratch so check these areas ﬁrst. If you ﬁnd an area that you suspect is a

hole, wet the area and feel for the air. Sometime you will HEAR the whistle of a small

hole before you feel it. BE PATIENT. START ON THE OUTSIDE TOP AND WORK DOWN

ON EACH PANEL.

A. Find Quick-Fix-Patches that were included with the product. Once you ﬁnd the hole,

deﬂate, and use these patches to repair small holes. For larger holes and more

permanent repairs see below.

2. CIRCLE THE HOLE WITH A PEN AND THEN DEFLATE — This will help you locate the

area to patch once the tube is deﬂated.

3. CLEAN THE AREA — Make sure the area around the hole is cleaned and dry. Then cut

a patch that will ﬁt over the hole allowing a few inches larger for gluing surface.

4. APPLY PVC GLUE AND PATCH — You can ﬁnd this adhesive at any West Marine or

Hardware store under “inﬂatable PVC adhesive.” Place patch over hole and allow to

dry for 15 minutes.

5. OUTLINE THE PATCH WITH AQUA SEAL (sold separately) let stand for 24 hours.

Aqua Seal dries very slowly, but the repair will be PERMANENT once it is sealed.

Patches without Aqua Seal will work, but will not be permanent and eventually

can come o.
